Which plan should you pick?
How ElevenLabs pricing works
ElevenLabs bills usage in credits. On its standard text-to-speech models, one credit is roughly one character of text, so the 10,000-credit free plan covers roughly 10 minutes of narration a month.
The Free plan has no commercial licence: anything you publish or monetise needs Starter or above.
Instant Voice Cloning (from a short sample) starts on Starter; Professional Voice Cloning, which is trained on more audio, starts on Creator.
Paying yearly costs about 17% less than paying monthly on most plans.
Prices change often. Always confirm on ElevenLabs’s own pricing page before you buy.
